Emerald GateKeepers

Χαίρεται κάτοικοι του σμαραγδένιου κόσμου και μη. Το τελευταίο διάστημα το μυαλό μου ταξιδεύει σε μια ιστορία που έτρεξε πριν από 10 ακριβώς χρόνια και πολύ εύστοχα την χαρακτήρισε η Margo, ως το τέλος της 2ης σεζόν, αυτή του Αθαρ, Ιρικα και Κασπερ και όχι μόνο. Έτσι λοιπόν διάβασα εν τάχει τα πολύ όμορφα γραπτά του Αθαρ, σταυροφόρου της Αλήθειας, και έτρεξα ένα one shot μέσα στο Πάσχα με κάποιους ασυνήθιστους ήρωες από το πλέον γνωστό Κιλκισταν. Το θέμα ήταν ότι μου άρεσε τόσο πολύ ώστε αποφάσισα να κάνω μετά από καιρό μια ανάρτηση και αν όλα πάνε καλά να τρέχω κάθε χρόνο κάποια σεσσιον στην εν λόγω εποχή. Είναι μια ιδιαίτερη εποχή σχεδόν μεταπολεμική. Μια εποχή που δεν ζητάει ήρωες γιατί είδε τους ήρωες να πεθαίνουν ένας ένας. Είναι η εποχή που πήρε θνητούς και τους οδήγησε στα ουράνια και στην συνέχεια τους έριξε χάμω. Το ξέρω ότι οι περισσότεροι πιστεύουν ότι η τελευταία μάχη της Καναλ πρόσφερε τόση πίκρα αλλά στην πραγματικότητα η ιστορία πριν από 10 χρόνια ήταν η αρχή του τ...

After i have finished the Emerald Hack: Player's Handbook; it was time to start creating a few notably NPCs (You can check Player's Handbook here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WSu8pw8mBfTlcHRshkX85sPkvT_3b_QjCnwcZ-KgazI/edit?usp=sharing ) Lord Duvel, Art of War, Level 12 Ex Steward of Canal & Commander of the Canal’s Phoenix Guardians Lord Duvel’s is the lord commander of the Canal’s army.

Well today discussion was about mathematics & Dungeon Questing. I suppose that you will wonder what a combination of themes is that. A beautiful RPG, such as Dungeon Questing , with the science of math. If you are familiar with DQ is a classless RPG system based on skills and also is based on White Box rules. Before i get my hands on the printed books i didn’t believe that such a combination will ever exist, but Mikael Hassel did his miracle. So every hero is buying his/her way to eternity by spending experience points on skills in hope to overcome future threats. In some point through our play session came an obvious question; what level am I? I spend some time thinking about the idea of an overall indicator such as level and here i present you my thought: White Box has 4 different experience tables. Also as i own many of the White Box material out there, we can describe each XP table as a different gear of advancement.   White Box rules as based on a 10 level pr...
